If it’s not broken don’t fix it

When I went to this place we had some very good learning materials to help you complete a course. Now they have new technology, new courses and of course new courseware. I think I can sum up the new stuff in a few sentences.
It sucks!
I don’t like it!
It’s retarded!
Yeah that about does it! When I asked the director the reason behind the change, he simply responded with, “The students today didn’t like the old material”
“Compared to what” I asked.
The new stuff seems to cater to lazy and really ignorant people. The old training material focused more on the student actually trying to learn the course. Seems like our standards have dropped considerably in the past few years! I’ve tried to use the new learning tools, I just can’t stand them. I asked the director if any of the old ones are still available for use.
“Yeah one of them is for sure but the rest are all gone”
“Really, well then sign me up for whatever’s left.”
“Would love to” he says “but unfortunately all our licenses for that one have run out.”
Great, so now I am stuck with this crap. So I decided rather than try to learn this new courseware, my time would be better spent testing out counters for this site.
After setting up two of them and signing up for a third (yeah I don’t know what I want yet, see bottom of page) I have concluded that yes, my time today “Was” better spent surfing the net then working with that crap-ware.
Meanwhile back on the front line all of the computers in the medical lab seemed to have mystically been renamed to all the same thing. So now none of the students can log on. Well actually I shouldn’t say that, one student can log on, but that’s it. The rest of them will have to wait their turn damn it.
I would rename them and join them all back to the domain but it appears as if my credentials are messed up. See, I can take people out of the domain, but putting them back in…..well that’s a different story.
“Hey did you get all the medical labs computers straightened out?”
“Nope, can’t rejoin them to the domain”
“Why not?”
“Well it seems as if I am not part of the administrator group.”
“Are you sure it’s not an I D 10 T error” he laughs
Yeah, um, have I told you all how much I like it here yet? “I don’t think so” I say
I go back to surfing the net, but this time making sure I sign up for every news letter and gay porn site I can using his company email account. Should make for some interesting talk at the next employee meeting I think.
So again, my time was definitely better spent surfing the net today then working with crap-ware for Oracle. Old school rules!!!!!
For JJ, “I said HA HA”
